A Simple Adventure Ride - No Fuss Setup

[@returnrider4952]

My very first "off road" experience was in exactly the location you're in but I was on an NC750x. Taking that through there, out to Mountain Lagoon and even down Gee's Arm Fire Trail where you went was a bit hectic but so much fun. I got to the part you were talking about and yeah, didn't go down LOL. I got better and better and in the end had the back hanging out around corners on a bike that's really meant for the road. So much fun. I've been out to your lookout (I won't name it) many, many times and just sat there looking at the bush and river below. Magic. Thanks for this vid, bought back some good memories and can 100% relate to what you were saying.

Set-up looks mint and looking forward to the upcoming trip!

[@braaaaaaaaaaap]

People won't time if you leave in footage of you riding without talking for a long while. It's nice to pretend like you're riding alone when you're not able to ride. Keep up the excellent vids man. I hope to be watching you in many years to come. :)

[@vanveen8472]

thanks Lance, a very nice relaxing ride, something I live for, like that you've kept the stock mirrors, they really are the best

[@budget-adventure]

As one of the followers sub’d to all three of the guys I can not wait to see the upcoming adventure and it being filmed from 3 different perspectives. Glad this ride was a bit simpler without any dramas because you needed a trip a lot less stressful than the last few. Thanks for sharing lance

[@robdotcom71]

Awesome spot... and glad to hear you're teaming up with Josh for another epic trip.

[@jpadv4157]

Good stuff mate, looking forward to the new adventure. I'm guessing vic high country 😉 but wherever it is i'm sure it will be epic

[@The_Apprentice_Adventurer]

That may be the area or may not be the area. Haha stop ruining my surprises mate.

[@mqr1228]

Nice mate. I’d like to check out those dirt roads myself with the DR650 I’ve had parked in the garage for a few years.

[@The_Apprentice_Adventurer]

Get amongst it mate. Nice easy route that one.

[@mototrailz]

It's ok if the Kriega touches your legs. Use them as Steg Pegz (less fatigue). Awesome bags 👍

[@peterbutcher4848]

A good link up of dirt roads and great scenery. Perfect for big adventure bikes

[@The_Apprentice_Adventurer]

Absolutely. Perfect for beginners and or big bike cruises.

[@russell1359]

Hi love the chanel, ive got a drz too, what gearing do you use?i also want to hit some adventures too, what tyres have you settled on?e​@@The_Apprentice_Adventurer😢

[@marksteele4364]

Bravo..... so looking forward to the upcoming adventure ride. cheers mate

[@The_Apprentice_Adventurer]

Yeah it’s going to be epic. I’m super pumped.

[@6226superhurricane]

i have had the kriega os 24 system, two 12 litre saddle bags for 4yrs no issues prefer the smaller bags to let my legs move around more. done a simpson trip and plenty of other trips no issues. i found getting some reusable cable ties and using them to limit the bags moving around is a bonus. they're easy to remove and adjust.

[@johndowse6673]

Can’t wait, absolutely loved the trip to the Cape

[@technospcgaming]

Cant wait for the videos mate

[@retiredwaterdoctor]

Always good to return to where it all began.....you said 3 people...I will be tagging along to see the videos.

[@The_Apprentice_Adventurer]

Yeah mate. Josh JB, Ausmoto and myself. Should be good.

[@SomeRandoInternetPoster]

Nice idea selling the GPX for the price of a coffee. I recognised some of those roads but the smaller ones looked unfamiliar and never seen that lookout before so purchased a copy to see what turn offs I’m missing around there. 👍

[@The_Apprentice_Adventurer]

Yeah that idea was born from viewers suggesting it. I had never thought of it myself to make routes. Definitely a workable idea though. That last look out there is a little bit of tar to get to but it allows you to have lunch at kurrrajong and then finish at the lookout.

[@_JoshJB_]

Welcome to team Kriega 👏🏼 😂 Can’t wait for the trip mate. Yeww 🤙🏼

[@701Adventures]

The Kriega bags have a great reputation. They’re a bit pricey but I believe that’s because of the quality of them. I use a mixture of Kriega and Mosko Moto and both brands are outstanding. I’m looking forward to discovering where you are all going on this adventure and of course watching the videos, keep up the good work. 👍

[@The_Apprentice_Adventurer]

Thanks mate. Yeah they definitely appear better in the quality department than my Nelson Rigg ones. Well stayed tuned. Only a few weeks to go 🤙

[@ShonkyProductions]

Great setup. I have the same and have used it for 2 weeks straight in the outback.

[@The_Apprentice_Adventurer]

Mate these would have come in handy on my Simpson crossing. Keen to test them properly on my next big ride.

[@benjohnson7170]

Looks like a choice place for a shake down run. I've got a mtb trail network 600m away from my house and i count my blessings every time on the Emtb.Not so good are Moto rides. But hey... Can't wait to follow your trip mate. Sweet.

[@bushysadventures1845]

Trees look like red snappy gums, always come out like that after rain.

[@alexferguson5419]

No excuses now about the setup. Enjoy the next adventure. What is that lookout called

[@The_Apprentice_Adventurer]

Thanks Alex. Vale of Avoca Lookout. You have to come in from Grose Vale side.

[@gasnxt6805]

I purchased Giant Loop Coyote saddle bag just befor my Christmas ride into the vic high country. It was great to move all the weight down lower and have room to ride. My riding buddy is looking at a set-up like yours for his drz400. Looking forward to seeing you and Josh on another adventure.

[@The_Apprentice_Adventurer]

Yeah I had a few brands I was looking at. But After riding with Josh in the Cape it was a no brainer for me.

[@gasnxt6805]

@@The_Apprentice_Adventurer your whole adventure experience will improve dramatically with the new set-up. Great video once again.

[@scottmoore9215]

Went well lance😊

[@Luke_chux]

Those smooth red trees are angophoras (an grof rah)

[@The_Apprentice_Adventurer]

Beauty thanks mate. Soy no a red gum haha

[@Chris_Z.]

Check out Rhinowalk gear also if interested?

[@The_Apprentice_Adventurer]

Mate I did have a look at their products, they appear to be very good quality.

[@fedgshhsgdjk]

Happy with the big bore kit so far lance ?

[@The_Apprentice_Adventurer]

Absolutely. Definitely a worth while upgrade in my opinion.

[@cliff1551]

6:47 mate can you do a pannier pack were you pack all your gear in your kreiga bags and what you put were .see I got same os 36 as you and cant fit all .y stuff in them .

[@The_Apprentice_Adventurer]

I reckon I can get a weeks long trip with everything in the OS bags which will be great. They are very roomy.

[@cliff1551]

@@The_Apprentice_Adventurer what tent ,cooking equipment ,clothes ,food ect :everything ,I've got bare essentials and only two thirds of it fit in two bags without forcing stuff in them

[@The_Apprentice_Adventurer]

@@cliff1551 mate I’m carrying everything I have always carried and able to get it all into those two bags. Full camp setup, food, tools, personal items and much more. Very happy with it.

[@darrenkellogg2437]

Hi mate, Question- Have you adjusted your gear level to accommodate your motorcycle boots?

[@The_Apprentice_Adventurer]

I have now. After this ride I moved everything back 3inches and angled the bags a big better.

[@trinc52]

Hammerhead sells a lever, and it comes with different tips to fit different boot sizes if it helps

[@walters6142]

Hey Lance, are you anywhere near Mt Hunter?

[@The_Apprentice_Adventurer]

Mate I had to google that. I’m based at Blacktown.

[@Mudjimba23AT]

How's the 440 going ?

[@The_Apprentice_Adventurer]

Brilliantly 🤙

[@JustTex]

Sounds like a vic high country to me ...Cheers

[@Desert2snowoffwego]

Aussies, clean up your s***! Send somebody out there and get those cars out of the ravine. Also, make sure that no more dumping like that occurs! Wtf!

[@The_Apprentice_Adventurer]

Mate there were plenty of them to. Crazy.
